Itinerary
You will meet your driver and guide Sanliurfa, where your journey begins. Our first stop will be the Karakus Tumulus, a royal burial mound from the Commagene Kingdom, offering panoramic views and fascinating history.
Severan Bridge (Cendere Köprüsü) is a remarkable example of late Roman engineering, located near the ancient city of Arsameia (modern-day Eskikale), about 55 km northeast of Adıyaman. Spanning the Cendere Çayı, a tributary of the Kâhta Creek, this historic bridge lies along the scenic route from Kâhta to Sincik. Built during the Roman period, the bridge was first documented in 1883 by renowned archaeologists Osman Hamdi Bey and Osman Efendi. It remains one of the best-preserved Roman bridges in the region. During our visit, which will last approximately 30 minutes, our guide will share all the fascinating details about its construction, historical significance, and the surrounding landscape.
We’ll climb approximately 35 minutes via stone steps to reach the summit of Mount Nemrut. Mount Nemrut remains one of the most iconic archaeological and spiritual destinations in Turkey, offering breathtaking views and a profound connection to ancient history.
After a scenic 2-hour drive back to Şanlıurfa, we conclude our excursion, wrapping up a day filled with history, culture, and unforgettable sights.

About Şanlıurfa
Şanlıurfa, in south-eastern Turkey, is the city of Abraham's sacred carp pools and the gateway to Göbekli Tepe, one of the oldest temple sites known.
Şanlıurfa, long known simply as Urfa, stands on the site of ancient Edessa and is traditionally linked with the prophet Abraham. At Balıklıgöl, pools of sacred carp lie beside a mosque and a courtyard of colonnades, and above them a citadel stands on a rocky ridge with two tall ancient columns. The covered bazaar nearby sells spices, copper and leather in lanes shaded by stone vaults.
